I will certainly give the owners a closer look, but haven't had an overwhelming inclination to switch away from gammys. We All Live Down Stream

I preffer Owners, but fish both. +1 -~Bryan~- JIGS! addicted to JIGS! Uhh ... JIGS? You can pitch em, flip em, drag em, bounce em, hop em, deadstick em, swim em, HOORAY JIG.

If you are bending hooks then go to a heavier one. The new flippin hooks that Gamakatsu came out with this year are stout and the gap is wider than the standard straight shank. It also has a keeper on it. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Gamakatsu_Heavy_Cover_Flippin_Hook_4pk/descpage-GHCF.html
